Best Sesame Fried Ramen Recipes

SPICY SESAME-GARLIC RAMEN NOODLES

Steps:

• Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a large skillet. Add ramen noodles and boil for 2 minutes. Drain noodles in a colander and wipe out the skillet.
• Meanwhile, whisk sambal oelek, garlic, and ginger paste together.
• Add sesame oil to the skillet and heat over medium heat. Add drained noodles and cook until slightly crispy, about 3 minutes. Add sambal oelek mixture. Cook for 3 minutes more using chopsticks to toss the noodles in the sauce.
• Divide mixture between 2 serving bowls and garnish with toasted sesame seeds.

FRIED RAMEN NOODLE (ASIAN-STYLE)

Steps:

• 1. Fill a medium-sized (large enough to fit the ramen block with 1-2 inches of space around it) non-stick frying pan with water, half-way. Heat the pan with the water to a boil.
• 2. Place ramen block and sprinkle the soup base (if you like it) too. Let the ramen soften, flip it if it's still solid so that it is evenly moistened. Use a fork to loosen it up. Let the ramen soften some more, and if the water evaporates, great!
• 3. If there is still water in the pan after 3 minutes of cooking, drain the water. Slide the noodles off the pan and into a clean plate.
• 4. Drizzle some oil in the pan and let it heat up at Maximum heat. Once the pan is hot, slide back the noodles into the pan. Evenly distribute the noodles over the pan.
• 5. Drizzle 2-3 tablespoons of sauce. Let it fry. Occasionally lift the ramen to check the underside. If it's brown, use a spatula to flip it and let the other side cook. Let the other side fry. Again, lift and check. If it's brown, slide it off the pan and into your plate.

SESAME FRIED RAMEN

Steps:

• Cook the noodles in water as directed on the package. Drain. Transfer cooked noodles into a small skillet that already has the sesame oil waiting. Then just lightly stir-fry. Finally, sprinkle about half of the seasoning packet onto the noodles and toss them in the skillet until well mixed. (You don't need the entire seasoning packet as the flavor is strong since you're not dilluting it with water.) Plate and serve!
